Where is Unified Communications Going?

17:49 | Michael Johnson | Nov 15th, 2008 12:55pm |

As a concept, “unified communications” has been around for awhile. It can mean anything from bringing all business communications into a single, seamless user experience to bringing global collaboration and conferencing technologies onto the same basic platform as traditional voice and text communications systems. It’s one of the most exciting ways in which technology is reshaping the corporate environment, and the implications for the enterprise are significant, ranging from greener, more sustainable business practices to drastically reduced friction, latency and overload of existing communications systems.
